The election of Milen Mitev, in challenging competition with other candidates, comes as recognition of the BNR’s active role in the work of the EBU and its position of a committed and reliable partner to European media outlets. Rayna Konstantinova and Albena Milanova have been vice presidents of the EBU’s Radio Committee.
